The National Honor Society at Needham High school offers free tutoring services for students kindergarten through 12th grade to the Needham community.
NHS Members: Each NHS Member must complete 12 hours of tutoring/volunteering per year of membership. Some hours of tutoring can be replaced by taking part in extra activities for the Honor Society. Mr. Stanczak will list these activities from time to time and if he approves of your participation in the extra activity then your tutoring hours will be decreased. Some activities include summer classroom for new teachers, helping at Pollard over the summer, aiding in web upkeep, etc. See Mr. Stanczak or Ms. Kardelis if you have your own idea of an alternative to tutoring.
Tutoring Handbook: If you have questions on who or how to tutor a student click on this link that will give information of effective tutoring and all the rules on who you can tutor. Each student is responsible for updating their own hours immediately on completion of each tutoring session.
